r/Fantasy 2026 Book Bingo Challenge - Update #1

Happy Wednesday everyone! I'm sharing my first update for the r/Fantasy 2026 Book Bingo Challenge.  The challenge officially started on April 1st, 2026 and it will run through March 31st, 2027.  I'm hoping to complete the full board of 25 squares for the challenge. So far I've read 2 of 25 books on my original tbr.  Keep reading to see the books I've read so far for this challenge:

14. Explorers and Rangers - Story features an explorer (a character who travels to and investigates an unfamiliar region) or a ranger (a wilderness or forest-oriented warrior frequently specializing in things like stealth, bows, tracking, and other hunting-related skills). HARD MODE: The explorer or ranger has an animal companion.

The No-End House book cover

I was really looking forward to The No-End House by Jeremey Bates, but this ended up being off-putting and just not good at all. I liked the idea of it and the creepypasta that inspired it, but you know what did the story about a million times better? The second season of the outstanding anthology tv series called Channel Zero. Actually, I might have to do a rewatch of it to get this one out of my head.

My review is also on GoodreadsThe StoryGraph, and my Summer of Horror 2026 - Sunday Funday: June Week 1 Update post.


11. Duology Part 1 - Read the first book in a duology. HARD MODE: By an author you haven’t read before.

House of Shadows (House of Shadows #1) by Darcy Coates isn't quite a favorite, but I still really enjoyed this one. It's very atmospheric and creepy. I'm looking forward to reading the sequel/ finale to this duology to see what's next.
